indians play like headless chickens and they pay for it.
why did gangu score 72, eating up 104 balls? that effectively means the other batsmen had to score real quick, finally yuvraj giving up his wicket by a meaning less run out. this was always on the cards because of the tortoise innings by gangu. if u play for more than 1/3 rd of total deliveries faced by the team u should make sure u have atleast a SR of 80-90% and this guy is playing for so many years!! with their slow fielding unit i thought india was happy to chase 280 odd which was gettable by their so called "experienced" lineup. remember england is playing without flintoff.
india need to get rid of their old baggage, with sehwag and pathan, india may have coasted home easily today.
